ʻO nā mea ukali maʻamau o "Cycle Sense" ua ʻike lākou i nā manaʻo palekana paikikala a me nā manaʻo kikoʻī ma o nā mahina ʻekolu i hala. Hiki paha i kekahi poʻe heluhelu ke nīnau e pili ana i nā mea ʻaʻole i hoʻopili ʻia e like me ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā hoʻolālā, ka hoʻololi ʻana i nā kapa a me nā hana hōʻalo pōpilikia. ʻO kēia a me nā kaʻa ʻokoʻa e pili ana i nā hiki ke aʻo maikaʻi ʻia me ke kanaka, a me nā ʻōkuhi no nā kaʻa. ʻO ka maʻamau, hoʻolako ʻia ka ʻōlelo palekana a me ke tālena no nā ʻōpio ʻōpio ma nā holo paikikala i hoʻopili ʻia i nā ʻano hana like ʻole e pili ana i ka makahiki ma ka paikikala. Nā ʻōkuhi no nā ʻōpio ʻōpio a me nā mākua i kahi hoʻohuihui o ka lumi papa a me ka hana ma ke kaʻa uila a me nā papa talena. Kākoʻo pinepine ʻia nā papa kaʻa a me nā papa makua e nā ʻoihana paikikala ʻōiwi, e like me Bike Marblehead a me ke Kōmike Beverly Bike, a mālama ʻia i ke kaiāulu. Ma muli o ka lilo ʻana o kahi palekana no ka hōʻiliʻili hou ʻana, e hoʻomaka hou nā papa a hoʻolauna ʻia.
Mai Malaki, i ka wā i hoʻomaka ai ʻo COVID-19 kuhikuhi noho-ma ka home, ua piʻi aʻe ka ʻike o ke kaʻa paikikala a me nā paikikala. ʻO nā wahi paikikala e hana ana i nā hoʻoponopono i manaʻo ʻia he mau ʻoihana nui, hoʻokiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe ke kūʻai ʻana o nā keke kaʻa hou a ulu a paʻakikī i ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i nā makemake e makemake ai. Ma muli o ka hoʻomehana ʻana o ke aniau, ua ulu a lehulehu nā ala maʻamau a me nā ala hele. Me kahi hiʻohiʻona hou loa ma ka pāʻani, ua kū nui nā pilikia he nui i waho; i helu ʻia ma aneʻi kekahi o nā mea aʻu i ʻike ai:
Aia paha he helu ʻoi aku o nā kekeʻe ma nā alanui a me nā ala hele. Me nā mea maʻamau; paikikala kalaiwa wīwī wīwī; nā momona, nā keke kaʻa mauna mauna pahiolo, a me nā ʻano humuhū i waena o kēia mau mea ʻelua; nā ʻano like ʻole e like me ke kaʻa hoʻoluʻolu a me nā keke kaʻa huakaʻi kala like ʻole, a ʻike nui ʻia nā paikikala huila kālele. A kahi papa kūikawā, nā paikikala uila a i ʻole nā uila uila, ke loaʻa wikiwiki nei ka kaulana. ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻololi i nā keke uila i nā paikikala maʻamau akā hoʻokalakupua lākou i nā ʻano mea kūʻai aku, kēlā me kēia mea holo paikikala a me nā poʻe ʻē aʻe, a ua loaʻa ka ikaika i loko o ka mākeke. Hāʻawi ke kōkua ikehu o nā uila uila i nā mea holo paikikala maʻamau e hāpai i luna: kahi hui o ka wikiwiki a ʻokoʻa akā ke kiʻi nei i kahi kaʻaahi. Nānā nā mea kūʻai aku ʻē iā lākou ma ke ʻano he noʻonoʻo kūpono i ka hoʻokele ʻana i kā lākou kaʻa. Ke noʻonoʻo nei e like me ka hapalua o nā huakaʻi kaʻa holo ma lalo o 10 mile, he mea maikaʻi ia. ʻO ka honua hope loa ke kūʻai aku ʻana he $ 15.4 biliona; Loaʻa i kēlā me kēia mea hana paikikala nui a me kahi mea hana kaʻa nā e-bike mode. ʻO ke kumu kūʻai komo komo he $ 1,500 a ʻoi. Hoʻololi ka pila ma kēia manawa 35 a 100 mau mile a hoʻonui.
ʻO nā kaʻa paikikala a me nā hoʻokele e holoholo ana ma waho o ke kūlanakauhale e Salem lāua ʻo Beverly i kēia manawa ua ʻike paha i ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i nā ala hele e holo pono ai ke kaʻa kaʻa kaʻa a maikaʻi hoʻi. Ua ola kēlā me kēia kaiāulu, me nā hana kaʻa paikikala hou e kuhikuhi pono i nā wahi ma nā alanui no ka hoʻohana kaʻa. ʻO ka hapanui o nā kaʻawale he mau laina kaʻa kaʻawale e pili ana i ke ʻano o ke ala a me nā kaha "sharrow" (kaʻana like) i ke alanui e kuhikuhi ana i nā paikikala a me nā autos e kaʻana like i ka ʻaoʻao. ʻO kahi hana maʻamau hou ʻole, nā pahu uila ʻōmaʻomaʻo ʻōmaʻomaʻo i pena ʻia i ke keʻehana, me he mea lā o nā kaʻa ʻoi loa o nā kaʻa ʻoi loa ma Salem e kōkua i nā paikikala e hoʻohuli i nā ala ʻelua i ke ala hele. Hoʻohui ʻia nā hoʻolālā no nā hanana kaʻa paikikala e like me kēia ma Marblehead i loko o ka mikiona o nā alanui piha o ke kūlanakauhale akā hoʻonoho mua ʻia ma lalo o ka hale o ka hoʻolālā Rail Rail hou. E ʻike i kahi wikiō League pōkole o nā Alakaʻi Paikikala ma aneʻi: https://youtu.be/3oJXqHdLJ2k.
Hoʻomaʻamaʻa kēlā me kēia kanaka i ke ala ʻo Marblehead Rail Path, a he nui ka poʻe e noʻonoʻo nei i nā hoʻolālā o kēia wā e ke kūlanakauhale no kāna hana hou a me ka hale hou. ʻIke iki ka hapa o ka poʻe i ke kūlike o kā mākou Ala Rail i nā patchwork nui o nā ala i nā kaiāulu a me nā wā i hala. Ma ka North Shore ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ua hana ʻia nā hana e like me kā mākou i nā kūlanakauhale a me nā kūlanakauhale he nui. ʻO Danvers, Peabody, Salem, Swampscott, a me Topsfield he mau ala paikikala kā lākou ma nā ʻano kaʻaahi ma mua. Ma loko o kahi o Newburyport, ʻo lākou a me nā kūlanakauhale kokoke iā Newbury, Amesbury a me Salisbury i hana i ka Coalition Coastal Trails e hoʻomohala i kahi kaiāulu ala e lawelawe i ko lākou kaiāulu.

Me ke ʻano kaulike ʻole, ua hana ʻia kēia mau hana e hoʻoikaika i nā wahi āpau i ka poʻe akā loaʻa ka pōmaikaʻi hou aʻe o ka hoʻohui ʻana iā lākou kekahi i kekahi.
